New applications in phonocardiography require transducers with high sensitivity, low noise, and extended frequency range. This paper compares several different cardiac transducers and describes the development of a low-mass, accelerometer type cardiac transducer which fulfills these objectives. The accelerometer weighs approximately 5 g and has a theoretical sensitivity of 125 mV/g in the frequency range 200-800 Hz. The basic design allows for easy modification of sensitivity and resonant frequency. This transducer has been effective in detecting sounds associated with turbulent blood flow in partially occluded coronary arteries.
